Illinois basketball slotted as No. 2 seed in latest Bracketology
The final regular season in college basketball is officially here and there are some seeding implications on the line in a lot of conferences. For the Big Ten, the Michigan Wolverines won the regular season and will be the No. 1 seed in the conference tournament. But there are some seeds still up for grabs.
Illinois enters the week at 13-5 in conference play and behind both Nebraska and Michigan State who are 14-4. There’s a chance Illinois can get the No. 2 or No. 3 seed but will need some help. However, their overall NCAA Tournament seeding is in good shape.
The Fighting Illini enter this week as one of the top teams in the country and Bracketology. With Joe Lunardi of ESPN updating it on Tuesday’s and Friday’s, this week will continue on with daily updates. The latest was a good one for Illinois.
Illinois Basketball listed as a No. 2 seed in Joe Lunardi’s Braketology
On Monday morning, Lunardi released his updated Bracketology after the weekend of games. For Illinois, they are a No. 2 seed but they are the fourth team on the No. 2 line, making them the No. 8 team in the bracket. The Fighting Illini actually moved up despite a home loss to Michigan on Friday.

If this held, Illinois would be the No. 2 seed in the West Region which is paired up with No. 1 Arizona, No. 3 Kansas, and No. 4 Alabama. That’s a pretty tough region, especially going out West into that time zone.
Ahead of Illinois on the two line is Michigan State, Florida, and Houston. The Illini could jump the Spartans and Cougars, but the Gators appear to be closer to a No. 1 seed than they do falling back as a No. 2. For Illinois, it’s simple. They need to take care of business at home against Oregon and the road at Maryland. From there, they need to have a good showing in the Big Ten Tournament.
If that happens, we could see them as the top No. 2 seed in this NCAA Tournament.
